Domestic market logged marginal gains for the fourth straight session on Friday, January 18, 2019, but there were certain stocks that came in the news after the market was closed for the day. These stocks can impact the market on Monday, January 21, 2019, when the market will open for trading. Here is the list of five such stocks:

Vodafone Idea Ltd: The telecom operator has sought a two-year moratorium on annual spectrum payment of about Rs10,000 crore, citing high debt levels and stress on the balance sheet.

Apart from this, the company’s board will meet on Wednesday, January 23, 2019, to consider fundraising. The company seeks to raise up to Rs25,000 crore via equity. 

Jet Airways: The cash-strapped airline will remain in focus as the forensic audit report that was ordered by SBI to examine the feasibility of restructuring its debts and identify potential red flags in accounts will be presented this week.  In addition, Etihad, which presented stiff conditions to buy additional stakes, may soften its terms for infusing capital in Jet Airways. 

Infibeam Avenues: The company has divested its wholly-owned subsidiary Infinium (India) Ltd to Ingenius E-commerce in a deal of Rs60 crore. The MoU of the deal was signed on January 19 and the deal will be completed by January 31, 2019.
